Core Tip Prolonged grief disorder (PGD) is a persistent and debilitating grief response that disproportionately affects bereaved parents. This mini review examines PGD’s prevalence, risk factors, and consequences, with a focus on sex differences, cultural influences, and family dynamics. It highlights diagnostic complexities related to International Classification of Diseases, 11th revision, and Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition, Text Revision criteria, as well as challenges in distinguishing PGD from normal grief, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder. The review further evaluates evidence-based treatments, including cognitive-behavioral therapy and emerging interventions, offering critical insights for clinicians and researchers working to improve support for bereaved parents.
